I tried Gandalf's Turkey Melt at Denny's last week. It wasn't bad but Which Wich's Thank You Turkey was better. I think the cheese overwhelmed the Turkey Melt. It also didn't help that the service at Denny's was horribly slow and I had to request my gravy dip to get it. The Turkey Melt is one of the movie tie-in meals for The Hobbit movie and it has turkey, stuffing, cheese, and mustard sauce with a gravy dip and a side order. The Thank You Turkey OTOH is almost the same except different bread and minus the gravy dip but adds cranberry which really makes a difference. Plus you pick your own cheese and add a whole lot of fixings which was absent on the Turkey Melt. And it's cheaper to boot; oh the humanity. I think I'll go have a Thank You after work tomorrow just because.

Anyways, moving on...

Back in mid-December, my father and step-mother asked that I ferry them to Galveston so they can go on a cruise and I decided to take a couple of Shinki along in case the weather was good enough. Unfortunately, it wasn't and it started raining shortly after I dropped my parents off. So I was wondering what to do and decided if I can't take pictures of the Shinki out in Galveston, might as well take pictures of them in the car. And on top of that, I took a video too.

I actually took more than one video but uploading takes a long time so it might take a while to put everything up plus it's all the same thing: Partio and Pomock riding in the front of the car past various locales. Not very exciting but I just felt like doing it because of the weather. :p

Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a good holiday season. I had Xmas eve dinner at my bro's and there was a good family get together. Plenty of noms for everyone. :)

It's been so long since the last update! I thought work would slow down after the summer season but things picked right back up and before I knew it, holiday season was in full swing. Thanks to holiday sales at HLJ, Amazon, and other places, I racked up a lot of toys but due to work, I hardly have any time to open and play with them! On top of that, there was simply too many unopened toys in my room and so on Xmas, I went and packed away maybe half of them and put them in the garage attic to open at a later time. So my current goal is to open up all of my boxed Nendoroids and figmas before spring season rolls around because I want them to be indoors before they get subjected to summer heat. Same with the Shinkis and other toys although they get to stay in my room for now.

My unopened Shinkis. Quite a stack to go through...

Since I have so many unopened toys and left my blog to rust for much of 2012, my focus for 2013 is to get those toys opened and post more content. That's going to be tricky since I have so much to do but I'm sure I'll work it in somehow.
